Illinois Teachers Working to Stop School Choice | 11/16/23
After giving you some history of the evil beginnings of compulsory public education from the 1850's onward, we fast-foward to today, where Chicago Teachers Union and the Illinois Federation of Teachers are attempting to kill off a privately-funded, but publicly-accessible scholarship program for school choice called the "Invest in Kids" scholarship. Joining me to talk about the CTU's role in all of this, as well as why what happens here matters to what's happening in your neighborhood, your city, your state is Mailee Smith, a staff attorney and Senior Director of Labor Policy at the Illinois Policy Institute.
